Bryce wrote, ⁣⁣⁣⁣”Rest In Peace, William Hurt. Your undeniable presence on screen broke the mold a thousand times over and I am so grateful to have spent the time that we did together filming The Village — and even after filming was done for you but you stayed with me at Sweetwater Farm anyways to make sure I wasn’t alone.⁣⁣ That’s the kind of person Bill was. Someone who gave everything and went out of his way to support me and others.”

She continued, “I’ll always remember his generosity of spirit and his love of stories and truth — that passion ignited the same love of stories for me. ⁣⁣⁣⁣Sending you and your family all the love as you cross this horizon into the next.”
